HDO6000 High Definition Oscilloscope
SAVE WAVEFORM TO MEMORY
1. Touch Memory.
NOTE: When Memory is selected, only Source and Destination controls are shown on the Save
Waveform dialog. When File is selected, many more controls are available.
2. Choose the Source trace you are saving.
3. Choose the Destination location.
4. Optionally, touch Trace Title to change the default name of your waveforms.
CAUTION. Any numbers placed at the end of this name are truncated because the instrument
automatically appends the next number in sequence to each file. if you want to use your own
identifying number, place it at the beginning of the name, or append an alpha character at the
end of the number: XYZ32a, for example.
5. Touch Save Now!
SAVE WAVEFORM TO FILE
1. Touch File.
2. Choose the Source waveform.
3. Touch Data Format and select a file format.
l Binary - saves the file to Teledyne LeCroy's binary file format. This format is documented in var-
ious Remote Control manuals for Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes. Binary results in the smallest
possible file size, and is recommended when recalling waveforms to Teledyne LeCroy instru-
ments.
l NOTE:Binary files can be converted to ASCII using Teledye LeCroy utilities such as Sco-
peExplorer or WaveStudio.
l ASCII -Text output file (.txt extension).
l MATLAB - Text output file compatible with MATLAB (.dat extension).
l Excel - Text output file compatible with Excel (.csv extension).
l MathCad - Text output file compatible with Excel (.prn extension).
l Audio - .wav file.
l WaveML - .xml file, used for persistence traces.
4. Depending on your file format selection, you may also need to specify a SubFormat.
l Word - For Binary files, specifies the samples in the output file are represented with 16 bits.
Always use this option unless Byte mode is "pre".
l Byte - For Binary files, specifies the samples in the output file are represented with 8 bits. This
option can result in a loss of output file resolution.
l Auto - For Binary files, looks at the data and automatically selects either Word or Byte sub-
format.
l Amplitude only - Specifies the output file include amplitude data for each sample, but not sam-
ple time information.
